Treasures of Japan: Homestays

TREASURES OF JAPAN

This summer the New Jersey delegation of the People to People Student Ambassador Program will be traveling to Japan.

The student travel program dates back more than half a century to its founding by President Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1956. Eisenhower was acting on his firm belief that direct interaction between ordinary citizens around the world can promote cultural understanding and world peace.

Join us as we travel through Japan on an amazing journey to get to know the country, the culture and each other.

Homestays

We split into two groups and drove to the remote village of Noko in the southern most point on Hirado Island. We were greeting by our host families. On our first night we had a barbecue of fresh fish including squid, mackerel and delicious noodles.
